Righting Line Use:
When a catamaran is capsized or overturned, simply reach up to the righting line inside upper hull
(windward hull if “turtled”) and pull the line down and out into position. If you are wearing a trapeze
harness, merely hook the mid portion of the righting line into your trapeze hook and lay out with your feet
on the submerged hull (extra leverage may be gained by stepping part way out along the daggerboard).
Having your crew place his or her body weight across your chest while hooked up via the trapeze seat will
speed up the righting of the boat. Don’t forget to uncleat the main and jib sheets
